Microsoft doesn't need the ROG Xbox Ally — it needs the Nintendo Switch 2
It's hard to get excited about the ROG Xbox Ally when the Nintendo Switch 2 is already here.
After months of rumors and speculation, Microsoft finally pulled back the curtain on its Xbox handheld: the ROG Xbox Ally X. Really rolls off the tongue, doesn't it? It's supposedly the culmination of years of work from Microsoft, between enabling handhelds like the ROG Ally X, updating the Xbox app within Windows, building the Game Pass ecosystem, and expanding its coverage for cloud gaming. And yet, it feels like one of the most misguided hardware launches I've seen in years.
